Son of the Bourbon

My mama drank scotch whiskey
and my daddy drank Jim Beam
I was concieved
just outside of New Orleans
told my ma he loved her
while ole Elvin Bishop played
daddy'd be the worst mistake
my mama ever made

chorus
I'm a son of the bourbon
I'm a son of a bitch
I'm the dying breed of rock and roll
left ass up in a ditch
I've been up against the law
I've served some time in jail
I've been known for gettin' stoned
and I've raised my share of hell

They went back to Alabama
one cold October day
soon as I was born
my daddy up and ran away
we got by on gettin' by
we'd live from week to week
as long as I've got two good hands
I'll work to earn my keep

chorus

My mama drank scotch whiskey
and my daddy drank Jim Beam
I was concieved
just outside of New Orleans
when my life is over
and my time has come to pass
bury me upside down
so the world can kiss my ass
